3. NGINX ("ENGINE-X")
High performance HTTP, POP/IMAP and reverse proxy server.
Started in 2002 by Igor Sysoev, public in 2004.
Entirely written in C.
Hosts nearly 12.18% of active sites across all domains.
Nginx.com in 2011.

25. LUA NGINX MODULE
https://github.com/chaoslawful/lua-nginx-module/
Created by TaoBao.com Engineers
High concurrent and non-blocking request processing
Programs can be written in the plain-old sequential way
Nginx takes care of I/O operations and Lua Nginx Module restore the
context and resume the program logic
26. LUA NGINX MODULE
https://github.com/chaoslawful/lua-nginx-module
Introduces directives for running Lua inside Nginx
Exposes the Nginx environment to Lua via an Api
It's fast
Is even faster when compiled with LUA JIT(Just in Time Compiler)
28. DIRECTIVES
Configuration directives serve as gateways to the Lua API within the
nginx.conf file.

Communicate via TCP or Unix domain sockets
Keepalive mechanism avoid connect/close for each request

40. SUMMARY
The Nginx architecture is excellent for highly scalable applications.
Nginx can do a variety of things thanks to module extensions, and one can
resuse those extensions by issuing sub-requests in Lua.
lua-nginx-module makes use of the evented architecture in Nginx,
providing a powerful and performant programming environment.
It's possible to do 100% non-blocking I/O with readable code.
